Charlotte, the largest city in the southeastern United States state of North Carolina. The most intuitive feature of Hu Qingniu who came here, here is green at a glance, the trees are lush, the grass is green, walking in the meantime, let go of the atmosphere in a green world.

The temperature from the arm is also just right, and it is a city where you can wear short sleeves for 9~10 months a year, and it only snows 1~2 times a year.

Charlotte, the nation's second-largest banking center after New York, has a permanent population of 250,000.

Charlotte is definitely the smallest city in the NBA, but it really can't be found in North Carolina.

Although it used to have NBA teams, the NBA has not always been the focus of basketball here. The entire state of North Carolina is home to the NCAA, the national college basketball league.

North Carolina is home to the NCAA elite schools, and ESPN's top 10 basketball schools in the United States account for the top two schools, North Carolina in second place and Duke in first.

North Carolina has produced many well-known NBA stars, in addition to the "God of Basketball" Michael Jordan, there are also "Demigods" Vince Carter, "Roaring Heaven" Rasheed Wallace, "Potato" Sbert Webb, "Cobra" James Worthy, Jerry Stackhouse and so on.

As a lifelong enemy, Duke University is not too far away, with Grant Hill, Jay Williams, Elton Brand, Carlos Boozer, Sean Battier, Lore Deng, and Corey Margety, Duke University is largely focused on the development of technical forwards.

In addition to North Carolina on Chapel Hill and Duke in Durham, there is also a well-known university - Wake Forest University. The alma mater of Tim Duncan, the owner of the Virgin Islands, and Duncan's nickname for the "Flying Devils", comes from the Vic Forest Devil Deacons.

And, not long ago, Hu Qingniu had heard that Chris Paul, a guy who can be called a point guard template, has entered the Devil's Deacons team.

Chapel Hill, where North Carolina is located, Durham, where Duke, is located, are both two hours away from Charlotte, and Wake Forest is only an hour's drive from Charlotte, so many Charlotte fans are willing to drive to see these college leagues.

But Hu Qingniu is here now, and he's confident of changing the habits that locals love the NCAA even more.

Why the former Hornets were not loved by the locals is probably the same reason as Chinese football, the results are too poor.

There are three strong teams in the NCAA here, with many star players and countless championships, while the NBA on the other side is always ravaged, and the best result in decades is only the second round of the East.

However, Hu Qingniu is confident that he will be able to break this record in no more than three years.

In a temporarily rented office, Hu Qingniu met Michael Jordan, a gorgeous turned boss.

Boss Qiao, who became a boss for the first time, asked about Hu Qingniu's draft intention list after a nagging lecture. In fact, as a basketball fanatic, Boss Qiao has already drawn up his draft list, and he asked Hu Qingniu just to introduce his own list, after all, in his opinion, Hu Qingniu has just been confirmed as the head coach of the new team, and it must be too late to inspect the players.

However, to Boss Qiao's surprise, Hu Qingniu directly threw out a list of four people.

"LeBron James, Carmelo Anthony, Chris Bosh, Dwyane Wade?"

Jordan dragged out the last note as he read the last name, looking puzzled.

"Why Dwyane Wade? In the prediction, he is a rookie in the teens, and we can't fall into that position. It's a super year, and you may not know it all the time in the United States, but there are two big men in Europe who are said to be very good, Sevilla's Darko Milicic can do just anything, and Chris Carman from Germany is also a skilled potential centre-forward. ”

Hu Qingniu rolled his eyes, Jordan sitting in the boss's chair was much more stupid than Jordan on the field.

"Michael, don't you know how I look?"

Boss Qiao shook his head uncooperatively, indeed in his mind, Hu Qingniu's medical skills and tactical skills are beyond reproach, but looking at people's eyes, I'm sorry, Boss Qiao still feels that he is a little more powerful at present.

Hu Qingniu was speechless.

"Let's put it this way, I think Wade is the biggest dark horse of the year, and he's going to be one of the best players in this class. And, as I understand it, he has a much like you on the pitch and is a competitive fighter on the pitch. ”

Boss Qiao sat on the leather swivel chair and spun in circles.

"Okay, this 193cm dwarf will let it go first. Chris Bosh, I've only heard about him recently, is said to be a great player after going to college. The resume before high school was quite average, and now the general prediction is around 4-8, why don't we choose the more powerful Darko Milicic, who is better both technically and physically. ”

Hu Qingniu was no longer polite, and found a chair to sit down, he felt that he was no longer led by Jordan.

"It's my job to scout the players and in my opinion, Chris is a hundred times better than the European kid. None of these two supposedly talented European giants have really understood them, and the sample of information they have obtained so far is too small. Moreover, NBA basketball and European basketball are two worlds, and there are countless talents who have been lost after entering the NBA. Relatively speaking, Chris Bosh is the better and more secure choice. ”

Although Hu Qingniu is reasonable, Boss Qiao, who has just taken office, is obviously an extremely assertive stubborn donkey. It is impossible for him to overturn his subjective ideas, but Coach Hu Qingniu's face still has to be given, and out of concessions to Hu Qingniu, he chose a plan to take a step back.

"Hu, since we don't agree on the same thing, let's just sort our team goals, and we each have two places. On the day of the draft, the player with the highest ranking on the remaining list is selected based on this list. You write out the first and third goals, and the rest is mine. ”

When encountering such a boss, Hu Qingniu was also very helpless.

"No, in that case, I actually only have one spot, because the first target is not a second option besides LeBron James."

"Of course, if it were me, I would have chosen Darko, my shooting in junior high school was better than LeBron's, and he would definitely fall." Jordan said.

Hu Qingniu was silent, and he could only be helpless for such a boss. In addition to LeBron, it means that Hu Qingniu has only one place, and Melon is still Flash, and for a while, Hu Qingniu can't make a decision.

There are still a few days left before the draft meeting, Hu Qingniu decided to take Boss Qiao to inspect the players, and only this method can stop Boss Qiao from making trouble.
